To make the flash header reflect your company theme you will have to change the company name, company slogan and the buttons text.
It's quite easy. So let's do it step by step.
First of all you should open your FLA file from the web design template package in Macromedia Flash. The previous chapter contains a quick guide about this question.
Now you should locate the text that you want to change. There are two ways to do this.
The first way is to access it from the timeline. After you've opened FLA file in Macromedia Flash, move red timeline slider and watch the animation process. When you see text that needs to be modified, stop the timeline slider. Choose
Selection Tool 
from tools panel or call this tool by pressing "
V" hotkey. Double click this text until you get the "type" cursor in it. Then just type your own text in place of the original text.

Edit Text
Some of flash headers have complicated structures to create powerful animation effects. So it will be hard to access the symbols containing the text from the timeline. The easiest and most reliable way to locate elements in flash is to use symbols library.
To open the symbols library you can use "
Ctrl + L" hotkey or choose
Window/Library... from the top menu.

Symbols Library
Browse the symbols library to find the symbol containing the text you want to modify. You can see the symbols preview in the preview window at the top of symbols library panel. All of the symbols contain text have the appropriate names such as "Company Name" or "About Us". If you are unable to see this text for some reason try to change the movie background to something other than white. Because white colored text on a white background is invisible. To do this choose
Modify/Document... from the top menu and change background color in popup window.
When you have found the symbol containing the text you want to change, double click the symbols icon to show the text symbol in main workspace window. Then just double click text with
Selection Tool or single click it with
Text Tool 
(hotkey "
T") to edit the text.
While editing text in Macromedia Flash you have wide choice of attributes that you are able to modify. All the options are accessible from the properties panel at the bottom of the Macromedia Flash workspace. If you can not see this panel for any reason you can open it by pressing "
Ctrl + F3" hotkey.

Text Properties
To modify the text color or the font size, just select the text using the
Text Tool and go to the
Properties Panel to change the appropriate options. You can find the font family and size dropdowns, color select box and align icons there. Modify any of the options you want and the change will update the selected text.
When you have finished the editing of the text block, press the "
Esc" key to quit the editing mode. Now you can repeat these operations to edit other text blocks of your flash header.
After you have made all of the appropriate changes you can now publish your flash movie to an SWF file and update it to your web design template. You can find instructions about this in the Publishing your Flash movie section.
